delves into the human spirit

The poems of Sascha Feinstein intertwine the heart of the blues and human emotion. The reader is taken on a trip through memories of love, death, foreign lands and relationships with ingenous use of song. Thelonious Monk, Billie Holiday, Miles Davis and many others find their place in the strong voice of Feinstein who's lines make their own music. I strongly encourage others to read this book. Even those without a strong love for the blues can enjoy their travels through his poems and relate to the strong sense of humanity that seems to illuminate each page.
